Rekindling Her Affection (Sabrina and Nelson) novel Chapter 6

Nelson returned home past midnight. The luggage he brought home remained untouched in a corner of the living room. He thought of Sabrina.

In the past three years, she had always greeted him with an ingratiating smile when he came home from abroad. She was petite and would always huff and puff as she lugged his heavy suitcases to the second floor.

She always looked at him with a mix of joy and bashfulness, which was a stark contrast to her treatment of him on this trip.

He scanned the list of missed calls on his phone—most of them from Ronaldo. Sabrina hadn't called him once.

He called Ronaldo back. It took Ronaldo a while to pick up. "Nel, I'm working overtime."

"Are you working overtime with Sabrina?" Nelson found it hard to believe they'd work late for the pressing issues at the factory, as those problems were easily solvable.

"Yes. I'm still at the industrial park."

Frowning, Nelson grumbled, "Why does it take you forever to get the problem solved? Is Sabrina that incompetent?"

Even Ronaldo felt that Nelson's criticism of Sabrina was unfair. "Well, the manufacturer made a mistake, so we made them reprint the packaging. Worse comes to worse, we'd just switch to another manufacturer.

"This was a premeditated, sabotaging act to prevent us from exporting our first order. We would have been driven mad if it weren't for Sabrina's leadership."

Every year, Slitton would export two billion dollars worth of traditional preserved fruits to Javerston and Koranthia. This year, one of the Tucker Group's trade companies won a one billion dollar order.

Today, the company needed to export its first batch of orders. Yet, a hundred thousand packets of the preserved fruits had packaging that failed to meet the standards. The designer went missing, and the manufacturer shrugged off the responsibility.

As other companies didn't have enough materials to produce the packaging in a short timeframe, the exporting company had no way of replacing the wrong packaging.

When Nelson arrived at the industrial park, Ronaldo immediately lamented and complained to him, "Nel, can you imagine this? All the workers in the industrial park are working overtime to put the labels on a hundred thousand pieces of packaging. I've never endured such torture in my life!"

Nelson searched high and low, his lips pursed. Finally, he saw Sabrina, who had just changed out of her protective gear.

She stood at the door of the brightly-lit clean room, her face illuminated by the lights. He could spot her from afar.
